Job 2:5-7
Job 2:4-8 The Message (MSG)
Satan answered, “A human would do anything to save his life. But what do you think would happen if you reached down and took away his health? He’d curse you to your face, that’s what.” GOD said, “All right. Go ahead—you can do what you like with him. But mind you, don’t kill him.” Satan left GOD and struck Job with terrible sores. Job was ulcers and scabs from head to foot. They itched and oozed so badly that he took a piece of broken pottery to scrape himself, then went and sat on a trash heap, among the ashes.
